Hi Mari,

i have a few 50mg pills and lots of 100mg pills, both scored and divisible. i use half of each as my 25mg and 50mg doses. Zoloft is taken once a day.

i can skip or reduce the dose for a day if things are too icky, yes. for the moment, it would be preferable not to do that. these effects are pretty normal. they may or may not subside. if they don't i have to deal with them or throw meds at them, if i want the Zoloft to do its job.

in the past, i have only had these effects with higher doses, but i have always had one or more "downer" drugs on board:
- Tegretol
- Trileptal + long acting benzo
- Zyprexa + long acting benzo
- Seroquel + long acting benzo
- Depakote + long acting benzo + lorazepam as needed

this is the first time i have taken it solo.
